Subject: print from pico

I have Pine 3.95 and Pico 2.9.   I have set up Pico as an external
editor and I can successfully ^_ to use Pico.  What I would like to do
is use Pico as an external editor from the main menu of Pine.  I also
want to be able to print from Pico to a system printer.   In other
words, Pico would be a great word processor if I could choose a
printer.  Any suggestions?

Pico is a "simple editor" - not a "word processor".
If you want a word processor then use one!  ;-)

(1)  Save file, print file from shell.
(2)  Use a better (non-simple) editor.
